Glaetzer 2017 Wallace Shiraz-Grenache
$ 2799
Winemaker Notes
Wild cherries with a hint of blueberry and rose petal. Upfront red berry fruit, midpalate richness and brightness from the Grenache. Finishes fresh and long.
Blend: 72% Shiraz, 28% Grenache
Critical Acclaim
Yes, the 2017 Wallace Shiraz-Grenache blend is heavily weighted toward Shiraz (as usual), but it's the Grenache that makes itself known on the nose, adding lovely florals and raspberries to the slightly darker toned fruit of the Shiraz. Medium to full-bodied, this is supple yet crisp—perhaps a bit youthful and angular—but finishes with silky tannins and plenty of length. In another year or two, it might rival the impressive 2016.
